You're born in pain and pain is what we're in most of the time. And I think that the bigger the pain, the more gods we need.

More quotes by John Lennon
Control yourself. You'll spurt.
John Lennon
Am I crazy or am I a genius? I don't think I'm either.
John Lennon
I go to restaurants and the groups always play Yesterday. I even signed a guy's violin in Spain after he played us Yesterday. He couldn't understand that I didn't write the song. But I guess he couldn't have gone from table to table playing I Am The Walrus.
John Lennon
The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.
John Lennon
We live in a world where we have to hide to make love, while violence is practiced in broad daylight.
John Lennon
I felt an obligation even then to write a song that people would sing in the pub or on a demonstration. That is why I would like to compose songs for the revolution.
John Lennon
I am the eggman They are the eggmen! I am the walrus!
John Lennon
If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.
John Lennon
As usual, there is a great woman behind every idiot.
John Lennon
Happiness is a good vibe for peace.
John Lennon
I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.
John Lennon
Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue with that I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now I don't know which will go first - rock and roll or Christianity.
John Lennon
There were very few real folk singers you know, though I liked Dominic Behan a bit and there was some good stuff to be heard in Liverpool. Just occasionally you hear very old records on the radio or TV of real workers in Ireland or somewhere singing these songs and the power of them is fantastic.
John Lennon
People never grasp the fact that they're going to have to go through the same thing again. They get to the sort of five-year stretch or the seven-year itch or whatever these tension points are that seem to be organic, built in, like the tide coming in and going out. It's like every time the tide goes out you quit--you move your house or something.
John Lennon
Love is a promise love is a souvenir.
John Lennon
There are only a few notes. Just variations on a theme.
John Lennon
All we are saying is give peace a chance.
John Lennon
Imagine there's no heaven... it's easy if you try.
John Lennon
People think the Beatles know what's going on. We don't. We're just doing it.
John Lennon
All you need is love. I believe it. It's damn hard, but I absolutely believe it.
John Lennon
